About Event

Like many other countries, in the US autoimmune disorders affect up to 10% of the population. It has been shown that genes are responsible for only one-third of autoimmune disorders, and environmental factors are involved in the other two-thirds. 

In this regard, Dr. Vojdani will share with the class his experiences about his participation in the 14th International Congress on Autoimmunity that occurred from May 17-20 in beautiful Ljubljana, Slovenia. 

In this congress, the newest diagnostic tools and techniques as well as the most up-to-date research on the role of environmental triggers and novel therapies for autoimmune diseases were discussed by world-renowned scientists.

These are some of the highlights that will be presented to the class participants:

  • The importance of predictive and pathogenic antibodies in various autoimmune disorders

  • Increased intestinal permeability as an avenue for the development of autoimmune diseases

  • Mechanism of autoimmunity, and autoimmunity in the central nervous system due to breakdown in blood-brain barriers

  • Connection between adjuvants (silicone, aluminum, polyethylene glycol, mercury, tattoo, nanoparticles and other vaccine components) and hyperstimulation of the immune system that results in ASIA syndrome

  • The chemical and social landscape of the modern world and increased risk of autoimmunity

  • Nutrition and autoimmunity induction due to mimicry or cross-reactivity

  • Novelties in COVID-19, post-COVID syndrome, and autoimmunity with major emphasis on Dr. Vojdani’s presentations

  • The role of pathogens, particularly SARS-CoV-2, EBV and HHV-6 in long COVID and autoimmunity, with major emphasis on Dr. Vojdani’s presentation

  • Prediction, monitoring and prevention of autoimmunities

  • Novel autoimmune diseases, diagnosis and therapeutic challenges
